I wish I could get banded now

[Chicagoboy 0]

I'm looking at May 15-30th to be banded but I wish I could go now. I have my 2nd apt on May 2, 30 days from now and then will be place on the schedule for the band.

I did a dumb thing by trying to gain weight before going in for my evaluation to insure I was right for this surgery. I went from 263 up to 280 and really cannot stand being this fat.

I wish the 8 weeks of getting ready was not required. I guess I have no excuse for not dieting now just to be ahead of the game.

It really will get here sooner than you realise. Meanwhile, how about practicing getting that waterload in during the day, but not with meals or one hour after? That will take some stress off of you if you get that down now. And find some form of exercise that you enjoy and will stick with...walking, bicycling, treadmill, swimming, etc.

How is your little nephew doing?
